Is This the Inspiration Behind Lorde's Ink-Stained Nails?

Here's proof that when it comes to beauty and fashion, everything has been done before—even nails that make you look like you just gave your car an oil change. For her Grammy performance, Lorde went with a crisp white shirt and wide leg black trousers, letting her ink-stained nails take center stage. Out of the box for sure, but another witchy woman owns this look.

Rick Owens' wife and muse, Michele Lamy, has been using Japanese henna to get The Craft look for years. At the ELLE.com office, we couldn't stop talking about Lorde's nails. But apparently not many people ask Lamy about her manicure. As she said to AnotherMag, she thinks most people shy away from the subject because they might think it's a disease. Maybe we want to get infected?
